5 The political and religious turbulence rocking South Viet Nam has caused some key U.S. military men to revise their estimates and predict a longer anti-Communist probably a longer American involvement. Past predictions that victory over Red guerrillas might be achieved in three years or so were based largely on an assumption of political stability in South Viet Nam. Some knowledgeable officers considered that time estimate optimistic, even before the Saigon government began repressing Buddhists last May. Meanwhile, Secretary of the Army Cyrus Vance is about to leave on a two-week Pacific area tour which will take him to South Viet Nam about the middle of the month.

He will be the first top official from the Pentagon to visit South Viet Nam. since the Buddhist troubles broke out. Some consideration was given to striking South Viet Nam from Vance's itinerary because of the delicate situation which finds the government of President Ngo Dinh Diem in conflict with U.S. policy. Apparently the matter has been resolved in favor of Vance's going to informed authorities indicated he will confine himself to a military inspection and avoid any public comments on the Vietnamese political-religious crisis.

Present plans call for Vance to leave Sunday and stop at Hawaii, Okinawa, Korea, Formosa, Viet Nam and briefly in Japan, where he has been invited to confer with defense officials. Although Vance ostensibly will pay attention chiefly to the U.S. Army and ita activities in Viet Nam, he is expected to give Secretary of DefeoM Robert 8. Me- Namara a report on his impressions of the difficult situation there. While outwardly optimistic about the course of the war to suppress the Communists, McNamara has stressed it will be a long, hard struggle.

Adm. Harry D. Felt, the U.S. commander in the Pacific, told a news conference last January that he was willing to stand on prediction of victory in South, Viet Nam in three years. The factors usually cited as hopeful included an increasing rate of defections from the Communist guerrillas, capture of more Red weapons, higher casualties among the Communists, and the building of thousands of new fortified hamlets to protect the peasants.

But come authorities said that while Intelligence baa improved Longer (Turn to.
